What to Do Before the Crew Arrives
A wiped floor is not proof that the cabinet backing is dry. Trapped moisture can support mold growth; meter readings show where structural drying is still needed.
- Close the sink shutoff or main valve when it is safe to do so.
- Avoid using a disposal, outlet or appliance in the wet area.
- Move dry household products out of the cabinet without disturbing wiring.
- Take photos of swollen panels, water marks and affected flooring.
- Call a plumber for the source and call 24/7 for extraction and drying.

The typical home in the ZIP codes around Salem was built in the 1970s. An older shutoff connection can drip into a closed sink base. Prompt assessment protects adjacent drywall and flooring.
Changing winter temperatures can expose a weak fitting. Water cleanup follows the leak regardless of the weather that preceded it.
